Day of week function needed
 
Column A has dates in the year. Col B has customers on that date. What
formula can I use to find the total number of customers on all the Tuesdays?
Average number for each Tuesday?

TIA, I appreciate you folks being there.

One way
In Column C, enter =WEEKDAY(A1)
To get the total number of customers for a Tuesday, enter =COUNTIF(A1:A23,"=
3")
Of course, you need to adjust the range.

Try this for total number of Tuesday customers:

=SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(A1:A365)=3)*(B1:B365<""))

And try this for the average:
=SUMPRODUCT((WEEKDAY(A1:A365)=3)*(B1:B365<""))/SUMPRODUCT(--(WEEKDAY(A1:A36
5)=3))

Hi RD

This doesn't seem to be working. It DOES count the number of times during
the year that ANY customers were in on a Tuesday but I wanted something that
counted the total number of customers in on all of the Tuesdays.

Thank you
Sam

I'm sorry, but I don't understand your distinction between "ANY" customer
and "total number" of customers.

Could you give an example of your datalist, where that difference would be
evident?

Hi RD

Your original formula counted the number of times ANY customers came in on
the Tuesdays during the year i.e. if 122 people came in on one Tuesday it
still counted that occurance as one. I tweaked with the formula you gave me
abit, removed the <"" and it's working fine. I haven't worked on the
average formula yet.

Thanks again for being there.
